Comments on: Murdoch: Would Serve The Powerful If Bloggers, Bloviators Replace Journalists http://paidcontent.org/2010/10/22/419-murdoch-would-serve-powerful-if-bloggers-bloviators-replace-journalists/ The economics of digital content Wed, 22 May 2013 17:57:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: jMac http://paidcontent.org/2010/10/22/419-murdoch-would-serve-powerful-if-bloggers-bloviators-replace-journalists/#comment-80610 Fri, 22 Oct 2010 07:35:26 +0000 http://paidcontent.wp.gostage.it/2010/10/22/419-murdoch-would-serve-powerful-if-bloggers-bloviators-replace-journalists/#comment-80610 Bloggers have a ‘social role’ whereas journalists are in the business of uncovering facts…?

It never ceases to amaze me how incredibly out of touch and inaccurate Murdoch is, regarding the modern times.

He *wishes* the world of media looked like that, because then he could somehow justify charging people for (so-called) expertly written content that’s actually free elsewhere.

Sadly for him, the world of media categorically doesn’t look like that and it doesn’t matter how many gazillions his empire is worth, the paradigm shift is larger than him.

That’s gotta hurt.

Hence spouting pointless nonsense as air cover.

There’s one more thing-that bag of money. They keep trying to get rid of capital punishment and rewarding mediocrity. All you get is more mediocrity and punished for performance. Try making bread without yeast and see what comes up. It’s a career of evils vs. don’t be evil. Such boys girls. Yes?

Between two evils, I always pick the one I never tried before.

Replace sleep with work and do it double over time. Do another line, it’ll be fine baby.
